420 McClung Avenue - Johnson Garden

From Jean Brandau, About.com

420 McClung Avenue - Johnson Garden

The gardens surrounding this handsome Colonial Revival home located in Twickenham Historic District are packed with surprises. Porches, patios, a pool house and potting shed all add architectural details to the tiered gardens and pool area. The owners, Sydna and Bill Johnson, are both Master Gardeners who love peonies, roses and traditional Southern shrubs.

A delightful addition is a model train collection which runs through tiny forests, meadows, tunnels and a miniature village. The trains circle the gardens and pool area and a train flag at the driveway will mark the way to this garden, enchanting children and grown-ups alike.
